Five TV Shows & Movies for Sewing Inspo

The other just because hobby that I have been yearning to take the leap to hasve occupy my downtime, when I have it. Is sewing, full on sewing machine, thread spools, fabric scissors, and measuring tape strands type sewing. 

I have always been interested in fashion, fashion as function, and upcycling. Actually, last year, I had taken the first leap. My aunt and I took a 4-week sewing class last year this time. It was great, we are so excited for this new venture. I took myself down to JoAnne Fabric (when they were still open) and bought a brand new Singer sewing machine. Well, a year later, and I have yet to use it once. 

However, that has not deterred me; this new year is a reset back to my sewing journey. But first, I need some inspiration to get me going. Check out five of my notable TV Shows & Movies with sewing and clothing-making themes and scenes.

Now that I have the inspiration I need to get started, the next step is to remember how to thread my machine. The Singer sewing machine in the above photo is the one I bought and never used, so follow along to see the progress I have made in my next blog post. ​
